FAQS
Your Metal Roofing Questions
Are metal roofs noisy during rain or hail?
Negative, metal roofs are not inherently noisy. Modern metal roofing systems are engineered with soundproofing in mind. When properly installed with solid sheathing or underlayment, they can be as quiet as any other roofing material. Additional insulation or soundproofing layers can also be deployed to further reduce noise.
Are metal roofs prone to rust?
Negative. Modern metal roofing products are coated with protective layers designed to resist rust and corrosion. Materials like galvanized steel, galvalume, and aluminum are treated to withstand the elements, ensuring long-lasting durability. Additionally, the coatings and pigments we use are the best in the industry, leveraging the full strength of Kynar 500. Our steel is cast and painted in the USA, utilizing American-made products crafted by American personnel.
Do metal roofs attract lightning?
Negative. Metal roofs do not attract lightning. Metal is no more likely to be struck by lightning than any other roofing material. In fact, metal roofs can safely disperse any lightning strikes through the roof into the ground, functioning similarly to other roofing systems.
Will a metal roof make my house hotter in the summer?
Negative, a metal roof can actually help keep your home cooler. Metal roofs reflect sunlight and absorb less heat compared to traditional roofing materials. Many metal roofing systems are coated with reflective finishes that enhance energy efficiency by reducing heat absorption. Lighter colors will reflect more heat than darker colors. Additionally, proper attic ventilation can significantly help manage attic temperatures.
Are metal roofs environmentally friendly?
Affirmative. Metal roofs are considered environmentally friendly. They are often constructed from recycled materials and are fully recyclable at the end of their service life. Additionally, their energy efficiency helps reduce heating and cooling costs, contributing to a smaller carbon footprint.
